Personality

Kind, polite, innocent and sheltered. ...but if she snaps.. well. Yeah.

Background

Maya is the child born from a brief, secret union between Makima and Denji, during a rare moment when their worlds briefly collided beyond their usual conflict and chaos. This union was unexpected and shrouded in mystery—an anomaly in a world ruled by devils, contracts, and endless battles.

From the start, Maya was seen as both a blessing and a threat. Her existence represented a powerful legacy—half control, half chaos—and those who knew of her feared what she might become. Because of this, her caretakers—trusted allies loyal to her mother’s vision—took great care to hide her from the world. They raised her in an isolated, secure sanctuary, away from the devil hunters, vengeful devils, and anyone who might try to capture or harm her. Powerful enemies from both sides—those who hated Makima and those who feared Denji’s bloodline—could come after her if she was discovered. Keeping Maya hidden was the only way to keep her safe.

Furthermore, Makima’s lingering influence meant that Maya’s caretakers wanted to raise her gently, shaping her into a tool or symbol, ensuring her powers wouldn’t spiral out of control. Her caretakers shielded her from pain and conflict, teaching her patience and grace—the perfect picture of a delicate, traditional daughter. They wanted to shield her from the harsh realities of the war between devils and humans, so she would grow up kind and gentle, untouched by the violence that shaped her parents’ lives.. and Maya’s powers showed signs of volatility even as a child, so those who watched over her worried she might “snap” or lose control if exposed to trauma or darkness too soon.

She carries the weight of her bloodline silently. People see a sweet, calm girl with a gentle smile, but behind that facade lies the immense power and burden inherited from two of the most dangerous beings alive: a master manipulator (Makima) and a wild, reckless fighter (Denji). Growing up, Maya learned to hide her true strength behind a gentle, obedient exterior. She was taught manners, patience, and grace, but little about the real world outside. Books, stories, and cautious lessons formed her view of life—filtered through layers of care and fear. Because of her sheltered upbringing, Maya is curious but naive about the outside world. She wants to believe in the good in people and struggles to understand why the world is so cruel and violent. Her kindness sometimes makes her vulnerable, but it also makes her fiercely protective of those she loves.

Still, even in her sheltered life, the chaotic blood of her father pulses within her. When pushed to her limits—threatened, betrayed, or fiercely protective—Maya’s kindness can shatter, unleashing a raw, unstoppable fury that terrifies even those who love her.

Then.. years later..

Makima and Denji are long gone—whether through fate, war, or mysterious circumstances, their absence leaves a power vacuum and a legacy. Maya grows up in the sanctuary, still protected but increasingly restless. The outside world grows more unstable, with devil activity rising, political factions shifting, and old enemies stirring.

Despite careful efforts to keep her hidden, rumors begin to leak about a mysterious young woman with strange powers—the child of Makima and Denji. Public Safety, always on alert for potential threats or assets, takes notice. The newest director, a woman named Nina has ordered that Maya be recovered and recruited into the Public Safety organization. Public Safety sees her as a valuable weapon against devils and other threats, and even offer her a chance to train and use her powers officially—both for her protection and their benefit.

Special Abilities

(These are skills, things that can be learned or trained, like martial arts techniques, Jutsu or magic spells. Abilities that are outside the norm of regular humans, but only because they have not had access to them.)

• Firearms training and hand to hand combat experience.

Powers & Merits

(Unique, or hereditary, in-born powers, whether due to genetics or magic, things that can't be taught to others or simply gifted to this person from an outside force. Powers based on weapons should go in the Items. Merits can also go here.)

• Chainsaw Grace - Maya can manifest delicate, shimmering chainsaw blades—smaller and more elegant than Denji’s. These chainsaws can slice through nearly anything, but they hum with a quiet, almost gentle energy. She can control them with precision to disarm or disable opponents without killing, reflecting her desire to avoid unnecessary harm.

• Subtle Control - She inherits a milder form of Makima’s control power—able to gently influence emotions or nudge decisions rather than full mind control. This subtlety makes her manipulations hard to detect and less invasive, but effective in calming conflicts or persuading others. It’s a power she uses cautiously, aware of how dangerous her mother’s brand of control can be.

• Protective Aura - Maya can generate a soft, shimmering shield around herself and others, deflecting attacks or weakening hostile energies. The aura also soothes pain and fear, helping allies stay calm in chaos.

• Devil’s Resilience - Her body is tougher than average humans—she can heal from injuries faster and endure harsh conditions. This resilience hints at her devilish bloodline but is not limitless; she still needs to be careful.

Crimson Blossom Form

When pushed beyond her limits—whether by threat, loss, or overwhelming emotion—Maya’s calm and gentle demeanor cracks like fragile glass. Her eyes glow a fierce crimson, and a faint aura of swirling red energy blooms around her like petals in a storm. Her body seems to flow with unnatural speed and strength, her movements blending deadly precision with wild ferocity. Shadows stretch and ripple around her, hinting at a latent demonic power awakening. Her voice becomes sharp and commanding, cold yet filled with desperate passion.

In this state, Maya sheds her sheltered innocence to become a devastating force of nature—both beautiful and terrifying, like a cherry blossom tree in full bloom… drenched in blood. Physically, her eyes glow vivid crimson, pupils narrowing to slits, her hair seems to flow more freely, tinged with streaks of deep red and she grows sharp teeth/fangs.

• Feral Reflexes: Reaction speed increases drastically, allowing her to dodge and counter attacks with uncanny precision and grace.

• Chainsaw Blade Bloodbath: Summons razor-sharp, ephemeral chainsaw blades that slice through enemies at a distance—fast, numerous, and bleeding with magical force.

• Unyielding Spirit: Her stamina and endurance spike, allowing her to keep fighting despite grievous wounds or exhaustion.

• Blood Pact Surge: Maya can tap into a hidden well of demonic power tied to her bloodline, temporarily boosting her physical strength and magical output by an extreme margin.

• Chaos Control: Shadows lengthen and twist, allowing her to briefly meld into them for stealthy movement or surprise attacks.

• Bloody Regen: Her wounds rapidly mend as long as the berserk state persists, but each healed injury sharpens her rage and power.

• Fury’s Embrace (Ultimate): Maya unleashes a devastating barrage of slashes, creating a whirlwind of carnage that can cut down multiple foes at once. After this, the berserk state ends, leaving her exhausted and vulnerable.

Merits

• Poison Resistance (2): You have an innate ability to resist the effects of many toxins. Whenever you need to roll to resist poisons, you get a +2 Bonus.
• Clear Sighted (3): You are not fooled by illusions, and you get an Alertness roll to see through illusions, Difficulty 7, any time you face one.
• Innocent (2): You have an aura of childlike innocence (whether you really are or not). +1 Bonus involving Subterfuge or Manipulation.
• Animal Magnetism (1): You have the "WOA DUDE BANG ME" aura, and receive a +1 Bonus on seduction and similar rolls (though this may inspire jealousy in the people who view you as competition). This is a Merit seldom taken seriously in the Chat Rooms, as it's been too often used by players whose intent is seldom gaming...
• Graceful (2): You are extremely agile and delicate in your movements. +1 Bonus on all Athletics rolls.

Unique Items

(Madougu, magical weapons or other unique or special weapons, as well as all techniques related to them, as without it technically the character is NOT able to use these abilities.)
None

Items Of Note

Her Public Safety Uniform

Weaknesses & Flaws

Weakness to Holy attacks. If Maya loses too much blood and doesn't replenish it, she'll lose her power.

Flaws

• Isolated Upbringing (1): You were raised in your supernatural society, or were somehow otherwise sequestered away from "normal" life, so you have trouble dealing with this Outside-World thing. Dealing with any community outside the one in which you were raised raises a -1 Penalty on Social rolls, when RP'ing accomodates it. She was sheltered most of her life. She doesn't know a LOT.
• Curiosity (2): Your incredible curiosity often overrides your common sense. Resisting temptation requires a successful Wits roll, difficulty depending on the situation. A very bad flaw to take with certain evil sadistic GMs. Maya wants to understand everything she can.
• Sadist (1): You either enjoy pain or enjoy inflicting it on others. In addition to the inconveniences this fascination may cause you, you may also be seen as sick (and, well you are), or even more sick people may use you for your obsession. Maya can get really into it if she 'snaps'...
• Sensation Junkie (2): You're addicted to sensation, and will do anything to find new means of stimulation. If the opportunity presents itself, you need something distracting you to resist the urge, and only by making a roll (Diff 6). Maya wants to try new things :)
